Until now, the capabilities of VMware Cloud Director Service on Oracle Cloud VMware Solution have been tailored to meet the needs of enterprise clientele. This empowers businesses to effortlessly establish SDDC endpoints within Oracle Cloud VMware Solution through a sophisticated system of internal multi-tenancy. Within this framework, every internal tenant enjoys the benefits of their very own dedicated Organization Virtual Data Center (OVDC). This dynamic approach ensures streamlined operations and maximized efficiency for our valued clients.
We’re excited to announce that we have expanded our support and are extending an invitation to Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) to utilize the Cloud Director service on Oracle Cloud VMware Solution, which is now officially Generally Available. This presents an opportunity for CSPs to leverage the service as an SDDC endpoint, enhancing their capabilities and offerings.
What does this mean to the Cloud Service Providers?
The Oracle Cloud VMware Solution (OCVS) provides a distinctive set of benefits to its customers, including enhanced security, reliability, and complete administrative authority over their VMware environments. It does so while harnessing Oracle Cloud Native services to modernize applications. OCVS boasts the flexibility of choosing from various compute configurations, along with the option for separate storage resources.
Furthermore, OCVS grants customers full administrative access and control, deploys L2 networking within the customer’s Virtual Cloud Network (VCN), incorporates a robust zero-trust security model, and empowers both partners and customers to determine when and whether to upgrade their systems. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) has a rapidly expanding global network of data centers, encompassing 45 cloud regions, and OCVS is accessible in all OCI regions. Importantly, OCVS offers transparent and consistent pricing across all regions, ensuring predictability for its users.
As a provider, you have the advantage of harnessing the potential of a multi-tenant Oracle Cloud VMware Solution, which can function as an SDDC endpoint suitable for production environments. Additionally, it can serve as a reliable disaster recovery site for an on-premises VMware Cloud Director deployment, or even accommodate another SDDC endpoint based on a hyperscaler, which is actively supporting a production environment.
Connections to Oracle Cloud VMware Solution endpoints from the Cloud Director service are facilitated through an SSL reverse proxy. This identical mechanism is used to establish connections between the VMware Cloud Director service and platforms like Azure VMware Solution, Google Cloud VMware Engine, as well as on-premises SDDC endpoints.
